I can't see any reason for floppies these days considering their extreme
price per data unit as opposed to usb memory.

I don't flash much these days. And for times when I feel the need to, I go
about it by whatever other means is necessary to avoid anything to do with
floppies.

That's not to say that the Linux kernel should not support floppy drives.
That's an entirely different discussion really.
